　　Dear Editor:

　　While a new school term is about to begin, perhaps we should reconsider the matter of examinations. In July, two writers(letters to the editor) praised the cancellation(取消)of exams because they believe “Tests don’t tell the whole story”.

　　As a teacher who has worked in four countries, I have had the experience that a student who earns good marks is generally a good student, and a student’s final mark in a subject is usually a grade average of the year’s work. Of course there are expectations, but they do not have the frequency that would give an unfair picture of a student’s ability.
